Lymphoplasmacytic and eosinophilic enteritis with or without globule leukocyte hyperplasia in 4 goats

Abstract Four, mature, client‐owned goats were presented to referral hospitals for recurrent diarrhea despite treatment for intestinal parasitism. Common clinical findings included diarrhea, poor condition, neutrophilia, and hypoalbuminemia. Testing for common infectious causes of diarrhea in goats...
